[0028] Traditional simulation systems cannot flexibly change the simulation conditions. Especially in the open section of the tunnel, they cannot effectively deal with the smoke diffusion situation under different wind speeds, wind directions, and environmental changes. In addition, most of the existing systems lack simulation means for the special structure of the open section of the tunnel, making it difficult to comprehensively reflect the smoke flow law in this area, resulting in low simulation accuracy in complex environments, and thus affecting the prediction of actual working conditions. In the embodiment of the present utility model, the tunnel simulation system can effectively simulate the smoke diffusion situation in different regions by setting a tunnel main body with a first closed section, an open section, and a second closed section. The release device is located at the bottom of the first closed section, precisely releasing smoke, including harmful gases generated in fire accidents, for simulating accident scenarios such as fires, or pollutants such as CO and NOx, for simulating daily working condition driving scenarios; the axial flow fan is located outside the open section, capable of adjusting the wind speed and direction, simulating the influence of natural wind on smoke diffusion.

By embedding the top plate in the card slots at different heights, the height-width ratios of different tunnels can be simulated.
[0032] In the embodiment of the present utility model, through the design of a plurality of horizontal card slots, the side plate of the closed section can embed the top plate of the closed section at different heights, flexibly simulate the height-width ratios of different tunnels, improve the adaptability of the system while enhancing the assembly efficiency of the system, meet the adjustment requirements of tunnel dimensions under various experimental conditions, and overcome the limitations of simulating the tunnel shape in the prior art.
[0033] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, a liftable bracket 6 is installed below the bottom plate of the closed section, and the slope of the tunnel can be adjusted according to requirements.

[0036] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, the open section 4 further includes a plurality of side plates of the open section, which are detachably connected to the bottom plate of the open section. By changing whether the side plates are installed or not, the open sections in different environments can be simulated. When the side plates are not installed on the open section, the open section between mountain tunnel groups can be simulated through the combination with the first closed section and the second closed section; when the side plates are installed on the open section, the open section of an urban tunnel can be simulated through the combination with the first closed section and the second closed section, and open sections of different sizes can be simulated by combining different numbers of bottom plates and side plates.
[0037] In the embodiment of the present utility model, the open section is connected to the bottom plate through a plurality of detachable side plates, and the installation condition of the side plates can be flexibly adjusted according to experimental requirements to simulate the tunnel open section in different environments, enhancing the multi-scenario adaptation ability of the system.

The axial flow fan further includes a rectifying section 11. By changing the frequency of the fan, the wind speed can be changed.

As Figure 1 shown, the main components of the tunnel simulation system include a tunnel main body (the first closed section, the second closed section, and the open section) and an axial flow fan. During simulation, the tunnel main body is fixed, and the axial flow fan is provided with universal wheels.
